问题
I have a few files that are served via a content delivery network. These files are not gzipped when served from the CDN servers. I was wondering if I gzip the content on my servers' end, would Akamai first get the gzipped content and then serve gzipped content once it stores my content on their servers?
回答1:
Akamai can fetch content from your origin without gzip, and then serve the content as gzipped on their end. They will store the content unzipped in their cache, and then compress on the fly for those browsers that support it.
回答2:
I can't find a reason where settings Gzip compression to always is not beneficial to your end user. You can do this by setting Last Mile Acceleration to Always in Akamai
